Sunday

I won't write much about it but will definitely say i wasted my time. I thought rohit shetty's film never disappoints so i choose to watch this but i was wrong. There was some parts that actually made humour now but was not so impressed. Thank you.

My Sunday was well spent watching this movie. For the first time, a gripping show of comedy, brilliant suspense, and of course a good and unique storyline. Rohit Shetty proves that even he exists in the filming world! Not literally, but metaphorically speaking... The soundtrack is also good, lets say 7.5/10. This movie will have you gripped till the last frame. Ajay Devgan suits almost everywhere - tragedy, comedy or action. He proves it in Halla Bol and now Sunday. Ayesha Takia is brilliant, perhaps in my eyes her first good performance. Arshad Warsi as usual flawlessly impresses you. The screenplay is good, cinematography flawless, and editing brilliant! All in all, to put it in a nutshell, a brilliant take for 60 bucks, and i mean BRILLIANT! Don't miss the chance next Sunday and get your ticket, and run for it! Its not many times you get such a show... You know what I mean.

Sunday : In a straight review Sunday is not what you expect after seeing the promising promos. It's a mixture of thriller and comedy sequences. Whereas the comedy sequences are highly enjoyable, there is no thrill in the suspense and murder mystery element of the script. The film is said to be a remake of a HIT Telugu film ANUKOKUNDA OKA ROJU [2005]. The Telugu original must be more enjoyable fare as it was a big hit but the Hindi version lacks the right punch needed for a blockbuster. In fact director Rohit Shetty seems confused in whether to make a comedy film or a fast paced thriller. Many plots and characters are deliberately inserted, which are clearly spotted by a average film-goer too. For instance :

1. Ajay Devgan's character of a ice cream eating cop is the most unimpressive one. He just plays the role and doesn't seem to be interested in the movie at all.

2. The murder mystery has no surprise element in it as some unknown character just enters the climax as the main culprit.

3. The most disappointing thing is that Irfan Khan, an actor of endless capabilities has got no definite role and he is just included in the movie to add to its project value. He has no involvement in the script and is just wasted as a comedy character. However it is his own brilliance that he again comes up as the best thing in the movie with his excellent comic timing.

4. Even Arshad Warsi, is not given the mileage he needed and he is also just another character in the script.

5. The action sequences on the actual locations of Chandni Chowk, Delhi and the item number of "Esha Deol" are clearly added as the last moment insertions. The director could have easily avoided them.

6. Ayesha Takia working as Cartoon Dubbing artist is given unwanted footage. She just acts in the movie as a routine work.

The script surely has a new concept, but is not handled in a promising manner. Music is also below average.. The only enjoyable moments in the movie are the scenes with Arshad Warsi & Irfan Khan. They both are highly entertaining together and the viewer keeps waiting for them to come on screen again. In all, Sunday is certainly not a good thriller movie but can only be seen once for the comedy by the talented pair – Arshad Warsi & Irfan Khan.

Sunday has made my Sunday a fun day. Yes, it's not a brilliant film of course but a good film to watch in free time. The story idea which was taken from a Telugu film is good. It's about a girl who has forgotten a day of her life. Now, she's finding out the mystery of that Sunday.

Because of this mystery you'll be engaged throughout the film. Actors did a very fine job. Loved the moments whenever Arsad and Irrfan appeared on the screen. Don't expect too much, it's just a nice film with good comedy sequences. At least it's far better than the recent released films of Rohit Shetty like Golmaal Again, Simmba or Sooryavanshi.

Having watched the promos of this movie, I was looking forward to watching this movie.

Sohar Thapar has a big problem and that is she forgets what she has done, sometimes her belongings and sometimes that she has to meet people. But one night, after leaving a disco with her friend Ritu, she wakes up only to see that it is Monday. But what is worse for her is that when she goes into the city, she accidentally meets a taxi driver who, she thinks, is following her. But he only asks her for the fares that she owes him. She also meets ACP Rajveer Randhava, who, she is informed is a suitable person for her to marry. However, she soon finds out that he is a corrupt Police officer. But then then she faces more serious problems when she realises that she is not able to remember what had happened to her on "Sunday." She asks ACP Randhava for his assistance.

After the success of "Golmal," this is Rohit Shetty's second venture with Ajay Devgan. The movie also stars Ayesha Takia, Arshad Warsi, Irfan Khan, Ali Asgar (of Balaji Telefilms's Kamal of "Kahani Ghar Ghar Kii) and Deepak Qazir (of Balaji Telefims Bapuji of "Kahani Ghar Ghar Kii" and "Kasauti Zindagi Kii".) Tushar Kapur and Esha Deol make a special appearance for item songs. What this film has highlighted is the situation regarding date rape drugs, which in forensic science, is very hard to trace when taking a sample after being raped. But this is a comedy / thriller movie genre and Ajay Devgan and Ayesha Takia are okay in this movie. But the two actors, that have saved the movie from being a total disaster are Arshad Warsi and Irfan Khan with their comedy.

In some ways this movie has been a disappointment and more so after watching the promos, which to me, indicate that the PR and the marketing of the this has operated in the most appropriate manner.

Conclusion: Disappointing but can be viewed with family.
